The Neighbourhood

Margate - courtesy of Visit Thanet

These days, Margate fizzes with artistic energy. To traditional, holiday-town charms, add a world-class art gallery. To sandy beaches and sparkling bays, add a cool café culture and tempting retro shops. Margate is in the midst of a cultural renaissance. It's exciting, it's energising and you're invited to take part.

Margate's Old Town rejoices in a funky vibe. Here chic eateries, galleries, vintage shops and chilled-out cafes rub shoulders with traditional seaside delights: candyfloss stands; fish and chip shops; seafood stalls. The reinvigorated Harbour Arm is now home to artists' studios, gallery and stylish spots to eat and drink.

Just 5 minutes from the Old Town you will find emporiums of everything antique, old fashioned and unusual at RG Scott's Furniture Market and Junk Deluxe

The regeneration continues with the revival of Dreamland being creatively led by multi-award winning designer, Wayne Hemingway MBE. Look out for a tantalising programme of events leading up to the opening of 'The UK's original Pleasure Park' with historic rides, classic side shows, eateries and evocative spaces set within a landscape ideal for hosting themed festivals and special events.

For more than 100-years Margate's Winter Gardens have drawn big-name acts, from the Beatles to the Kaiser Chiefs. The town's Theatre Royal is the second-oldest in the country, while the Tom Thumb Theatre is one of the smallest theatres in the world. Margate's annual jazz festival attracts top bands, setting toes tapping all over the Old Town. The Margate Masters draws Britain's best beach volleyball teams each summer, while August brings an explosion of colour and sound, as Margate's vibrant, annual carnival procession snakes through the town over Margate Soul Weekend.
